Namaskara everyone.Most of our Indian/Hindu kids have done this exercise (or prayer) before Lord Ganesha (especially in our younger days - just before important occasions or final exams). This is common in South India and this exercise is called "Thoppu Karanam" in Tamil or "Gunji" in Badaga.If the Indian school teacher asks the student to do this exercise (for being naughty in the class), we say "It is a punishment". And now the same thing has started in America - just termed a little different "It is Super Brain Yoga". Don't miss.. very ... interesting (4 minute video)

Yoga is a way of life, a conscious act, not a set or series of learning principles. The dexterity, grace, and poise you cultivate, as a matter of course, is the natural outcome of regular practice. You require no major effort. In fact trying hard will turn your practices into a humdrum, painful, even injurious routine and will eventually slow down your progress. Subsequently, and interestingly, the therapeutic effect of Yoga is the direct result of involving the mind totally in inspiring (breathing) the body to awaken. Yoga is probably the only form of physical activity that massages each and every one of the body’s glands and organs. This includes the prostate, a gland that seldom, if ever, gets externally stimulated in one’s whole life.
